How much does carbon pollution cost you?

[***super_nova***]

This is a living documentation of the price we are all paying for carbon pollution. Find out how you are paying, add your cost, and share with those who can help to end climate denial and put a price on carbon.

That is appalling.

And people complain about their household costs rising.

It is not just about quality of life, it is about survival of the planet and all species on it.

When all the trees have been cut down

When all the animals have been hunted

When all the waters are polluted

When all the air is unsafe to breathe

Only then will you discover you cannot eat money.

A rather strange and unconvincing site SN.  One reference caught my attention wherein it stated: "increase in Lyme disease".  I found that strange, as  Lyme disease is endemic in the Northern Hemisphere temperate regions.

The European price of carbon is now  below €5 providing little, if any, financial incentive for companies to reduce emissions.

 Lyme Disease is endemic in the UK and the northern hemisphere.  The most tick borne disease in those areas.  The OP post refers to an increase in the instances.

I personally know of three people who contracted it from ticks in Australia......it is so debilitating.

Correct me if I have misunderstood your post.

It's interesting that if you click on the "Take Action" button and tweet world leaders, the Australian one shows both Tony Abbott and Bill Shorten.

Do they know something about Tony's longevity that we don't ? Or maybe they realise trying to get him to take any action is nigh on impossible.
